You need to update the repo, and you need to use atleast synaptic, not the add/remove program in Applications.
Best is do this in terminal:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc

Hello! I have tryied to do exactly what you say in this post but I am receiving always the same error:
altair@Altair-HMC:~$ sudo apt-get install xbmc
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xbmc: Depends: xbmc-common (= 8.10final1-gutsy4) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: xbmc-skin-pm3-hd (= 8.10final1-gutsy4) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: xbmc-web-pm3 (= 8.10final1-gutsy4) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
Please help me, should I use the Hardy version?

Do you realy run a so old Ubuntu version? Change the PPA to the version you are running. Maybe you installed Gutsy and have had it upgraded to Hardy?
To check your runing version open a terminal and type:
$ sudo lsb_release -a
Sometimes this type of problem solves by cleaning the update system, try:
$ sudo apt-get autoremove
$ sudo apt-get clean
Good luck!

Loaded, but with issues - skyguy1977 - 2009-01-02 16:15
I'm new to the Linux (Ubuntu/Intrepid) universe. I installed XBMC without problem. However when I click on the icon to run it, I have a problem. The software flashes a small blank window for less than a second and poof its gone. That's it. I have reinstalled XBMC more than once, but I get the same result every time.
I'm wondering if my machine isn't capable of running the software. I have an ATI Radoen 9800 Pro graphics card and I haven't been able to get all the drivers running. I can't even turn on the simple "desktop effects" mode. With that being said, am I missing anything? Any help is appreciated. I plan on trying XBMC on my PC before installing it on my original xbox.

make sure you've turned of desktop effects via the Appearance applet thing under preferences (I think)
